My name is Claudia, I am from Brazil 🇧🇷 and I have four kids. As I was a very busy mum, I stopped my studies very early and didn’t have the opportunity to build a career.
.
When I was 30 years old, I decided to go back to university 🏫, juggling between completing my Bachelor in Portuguese while working part time as a teacher 👩🏻‍🏫 and a telemarketer 📞 for Mitsubishi in order to make ends meet.
.
I didn’t build a career in my country, but now in Australia I am learning how to be an entrepreneur at SisterWorks. I arrived in Australia 🇦🇺 as a student in October 2015.
.
I have a dream ☁; I want to create my own business making handcraft products and range of Brazilian food products 🥘. SisterWorks offered me the opportunity to learning by doing to be one step closer to this dream.
.
I joined SisterWorks last July when my friend Rose 🌹 told me about this community.
.
I started the cooking program with SisterWorks and received a certificate but didn’t really know what to do after, so they offered me the opportunity to continue to cook in the production lab 👩🏻‍🍳.
.
I was so happy 😊 and proud 💪🏼when I received my first wage, I didn’t expect that.
.
Before SisterWorks I was so depressed, my kids were still living in Brazil and didn’t hug them for 3 years. Every mum can understand the feeling of being apart from your children😢
.
Today I have my daughters 👧🏻👧🏻 in Australia, but still really miss my two boys 👦🏻👦🏻.
.
I know my English is not perfect but doesn’t matter because each day I am more confident. I am joining the SisterWorks business lab doing food tastings at Ritchies IGA to improve my English and sales skills. It’s a big challenge every time trying to sell in a supermarket but I notice my progression and can now sell anything!

At SisterWorks we work hard to progress the English language 🗣️ skills of our women. Many migrants come to Australia with little to no English. They have to establish a livelihood in Australia whilst trying to manage a language barrier which can create immense stress 😰. Communication is essential to live happily in providing a means to connect 👏 with people while opening opportunities of work and progression in society. .
At SisterWorks there are women of many language levels which enables an enriching environment where the sisters can relate to and learn 📚 from each other. Having a patient and open environment to communicate is essential for language development ↗️. This creates an enjoyable learning space in which the sisters are excited to have an opportunity to speak. Furthermore, prospering communication skills allows us opportunities to learn more about the beautiful 🌺 stories of our sisters. .
Cristina is one of our sisters who has truly seized the English speaking opportunities at SisterWorks. She is one of our most motivated learners 💪. Her advancement is astounding and cultivated in her persistence to speak English at every opportunity. She is also the number 1 🥇 cheerleader for our sisters, always passing on encouragement to others.

Did you know that about 70% of the Earth's surface is covered by water though only 1% of that water is usable for human consumption 💦? .
With water being such a necessary resource for life on Earth, reducing your water footprint is a great way to take action. Water conservation can be simple, and it starts at home 🏠. Whether you're doing laundry, taking your shower🚿, washing the dishes🍽, brushing your teeth, or watering your plants 🌱, there are several strategies that will help you save water.
.
Our usable water supply is limited 🆘, so it's crucial we use it wisely and care for it properly 💓.
